The Larva (Caterpillar)

I spotted this green Caterpillar on one of the Vinca plant in the front yard. He continuously eats the leaf, never once bothered with the camera pointing in his direction.

This is the second stage of the life cycle of a butterfly called The Larva. The egg (1st stage) hatches on a leaf, and formed into a larvae or the caterpillar. The caterpillar job is to eat and eat, eating the leaf he was born onto. 

And when he reaches the desired length he will turn into a pupa and later into an adult butterfly.
